Bob,
the ISO's or a tleast some are very screwed up it more a sysimage thing,
just type spme BS on the line like where you type linux text <enter>
type text <enter> yes yes thats an error but when it says thats an error
you can then type in linux text <enter> and fof you go, not very good for
n official release to be this fscked I know but it seems tyo be a sign of
things to come with fedora over past couple years teh guys who do QC
should be sacked.
Cheers
